Queene's Day celebrates the accession of Queen Elizabeth I to the throne of England on 17 November 1558. Observance of the accession was a national holiday in England and Wales for about 300 years, often with the building of enormous bonfires. It was revived in the village of Berry Pomeroy in Devon in 2005.[1]
Celebrations begin with evensong in St Mary's Church, Berry Pomeroy and culminate with a bonfire in the adjacent field, upon which is burned an effigy of the Devil.
